NIDA Corporate Training – Public Speaking Bootcamp

NIDA Corporate Training's Public Speaking Bootcamp is a four-week, after-work public speaking course delivered at NIDA's Kensington campus in Sydney (and also in Melbourne).

Designed for professionals who want to overcome fear of public speaking, the program uses performance-based techniques drawn from NIDA's world-renowned dramatic arts training. Each weekly session focuses on a core pillar:

  1. Physical presence – commanding body language and gesture
  2. Voice – clarity, power, and vocal engagement
  3. Storytelling – shaping a memorable, compelling narrative
  4. Presentation – delivering with confidence in front of an audience

Classes are kept small (up to 10 participants) to ensure personalised feedback from experienced actor-tutors. The course can also be delivered in-house or tailored for corporate teams.

Online practice in Sydney

In addition to offline public speaking classes, you can practice public speaking online from Sydney
